Drug-eluting stents are peripheral or coronary stents placed into narrowed peripheral or coronary arteries that slowly release the drug to block cell proliferation. Generally, these devices are made up of metal and remain permanently or removed with the help of another surgery. Metal stents present drawbacks such as the predisposition to late stent thrombosis, impairment of imaging with multislice CT, hindrance of surgical revascularization. Biodegradable drug-eluting stents are made up of material that dissolves or absorbed in the body, these are temporary, and no need for further surgery to removal of the stent. These are also called as bioresorbable stents or naturally- dissolving stents.
Global Biodegradable Drug Eluting Stents Market growth is driven by growing prevalence of coronary artery diseases, increased geriatric population who are more prone to heart diseases. According to World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are a primary cause of deaths globally, representing 31% of all global deaths. Of these deaths, an estimated 7.4million were due to coronary heart disease and 6.7 million were due to heart stroke. Furthermore, biodegradable drug-eluting stents have various advantages over the traditional metal stents such as no need of further surgery to remove stent, quick restoration of blood flow and faster healing process which are expected to boost the biodegradable drug eluting stents market. However, a risk of complications in use and lower awareness about biodegradable stents among healthcare professionals in developing and developed regions are expected to hamper the growth of Biodegradable Drug Eluting Stents Market.
